Club Atlético Osasuna will try to make up for its last defeat against Villarreal with the idea of ​​equaling on points a rival with whom until now it shares different objectives.

End of a long break for the rojillos after the setback at the Santiago Bernabéu. The 4-0 score weighed on the minds of a squad that had forgotten what a setback of that caliber was. With a worked version, those from Tajonar hope to compensate themselves in order to redirect the situation. “I’m at my best. Life goes on and we have to look forward, but it’s still hard for me to talk. There are 75 towns, it’s been incredible. There’s nothing left,” commented Vicente Moreno, grateful for the support towards him for a few days. complicated for Massanassa.

On a positive note, the team returns to El Sadar, a stadium where, except for Betis, they count all their games positively. The notable trajectory in Pamplona has allowed the Navarrese to settle in the top positions of the table, with expectations of more than just permanence. 21 points to aspire to dream about. Despite this, the club is cautious. Permanence seems essential before any other objective. Looking to higher levels would weaken a team with desire and enthusiasm.

The internationals are ready to go out from the start after a week and a half with their teams to re-adapt all the focuses. Budimir, Bryan and Boyomo will start. “It is a spectacular opportunity for us on matchday 14, and also for our fans. This is how we have to approach it, leaving everything together,” Moreno declared about tomorrow’s event.

Villarreal arrives in Pamplona wanting to maintain its high competitive level away from home, which has made it one of the best teams in the championship as a visitor, and with the aim of maintaining its fourth place against a direct rival like Osasuna, which they could leave, If they win, six points away and with one game less.

The problem for the Castellón residents lies in the number of casualties and doubts with which this match comes into play, since there are seven casualties from the first team. The absences include the usual Juan Foyth, Alfonso Pedraza and Ilias Akomach, who this week have been joined by Ayoze Pérez and Nicolás Pépé and finally also Pape Gueye and Kiko Femenía, who were doubtful until the last minute and are permanently absent.

The good news for Marcelino is being able to count on players like Álex Baena, Gerard Moreno and Denis Suárez, who are now permanently returning to the team, although it does not seem like they will be able to start from the start. In addition, players such as Navarro and Pau Cabanes, as well as Antonio Espigares and Alassane Diatta, all of them second team players, are on the list of those called up.

All in all, the possible eleven would have Diego Conde in goal, with Pau Navarro in doubt on the side, a pair of central defenders would be Raúl Albiol and Logan Costa, while the left wing would be for Sergi Cardona.

Furthermore, in the midfield there will be Dani Parejo, Santi Comesaña, Yeremy Pino and Álex Baena, while the attacking line is the one that generates the most doubts, although initially Marcelino could line up Ramón Terrats as the second striker, leaving the top as a reference to the French forward Thierno Barry.
